Shaping events for lasting impact

International conferences significantly contribute to positive economic, social and environmental impacts. By bringing people together and fostering collaboration, these events address challenges at local, national and global levels. They serve as platforms for knowledge sharing and idea exchange, leading to long-term social benefits. This includes fostering community partnerships, enhancing cultural understanding and addressing social issues both in the host destination and further afield.

Fáilte Ireland, the National Tourism Development Authority, and owner of the Meet in Ireland brand, is delighted to be one of 26 champion organisations chosen to advocate for and promote the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) across the tourism sector.

In support of this, Meet in Ireland is committed to aligning the SDGs to its Impact and Legacy Programme which involves collaborating with event organisers to recognise the potential positive outcomes of their events on the Irish economy, local communities and the environment. This collaboration aims to align with Ireland's national policies and goals, thereby promoting greater value creation.

As an SDG Champion, we are committed to actively supporting and advocating for the sustainable development goals across the sector, supporting tourism businesses to develop sustainable practices. By addressing these challenges, we believe that we can make a positive and lasting impact.
